A cool breeze hits the face, reminding those who are hurrying that the season has unconsciously arrived in autumn again.

The fallen leaves blown by the wind swirled in place, as if they wanted to stay around the tree where they had grown, but they were soon swept up by more violent gusts of wind, and they were carried in some direction.

At this time, it was past noon, and there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves stepping on the ground on the official road leading to Xi'an, because there were a lot of them, it should be a horse team, so the sound came from far and near, as if it was a thunderclap, so that the people who were hurrying hurriedly hid to the side of the road in advance, and watched the team of people and horses rush to the front, and then jumped in front of them, and then quickly disappeared from view.

I don't know which general was in such a hurry for urgent military affairs

Everyone was guessing in their hearts, and they each rushed their own way.

And the horse team galloped for a while, and finally, from a distance, they could see the tall dark gray city wall of Xi'an Mansion.

As we were approaching the city gate, the number of pedestrians coming and going increased a lot, and the young man who was running at the front took the lead in slowing down, and a general in gold armor and red robes beside him, as well as another young man, also pulled the reins and slowed down.

"General Song, I'm going to enter the city in a while, let everyone stretch the line, merge it into two columns, walk slowly, don't hurt the people passing by."

The young man commanded the golden-armored general.

The man known as General Song immediately agreed,

"The last general will obey the order of His Royal Highness King Yan!"

As he spoke, he turned to the herald beside him and gave an order.

But it turned out that this young man was the fourth son of the current Ming Emperor, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and the Jinjia general was Song Sheng, the commander of the Liangzhou Guard.

As soon as the order was passed, the horse team immediately entered the city in two columns.

While walking, Zhu Di asked casually,

"General Song just broke the division of Jinai Road not long ago, and the credit is not small."

"Where, this is also long live the blessing of the sky, and I have the eternal power of the Ming Dynasty."

Song Sheng smiled slightly and said polite words.

Zhu Di also smiled slightly,

"It's just, I don't know why General Song is not in Wuwei, why he arrived in Xi'an Mansion, isn't there any military situation?"

"Oh, no, no, don't misunderstand His Royal Highness King Yan,"

Song Sheng waved his hand again and again,

"The last general is here, just to report to His Royal Highness King Qin, to report the recent military situation and war report, I happened to hear that His Royal Highness King Yan is coming, King Qin is not sure who to send to greet you, the last general took the initiative to ask for an order, come to meet you."

"I see, there is General Lao."

Zhu Di listened and nodded slightly, as if he was also relieved.

Zheng He, a young man on the side, listened to this conversation, and only then did he understand what happened not long ago.

Just now, Zhu Di and Zheng Hezhu were resting in a tavern not far from the official road, but they encountered several assassins who came to assassinate them. And after everything calmed down, the Song general brought people to arrive, Zheng He was very angry and wanted to say a few words to him, but Zhu Di stopped him. Now I know that the general in front of me has just come to report on his work, and he has just made a great contribution.

At this time, it was close to the Qin Palace, and the hundred horse cavalry were automatically divided into two sides, Zhu Di took Zheng He and Song Sheng directly to the gate of the palace, and when he looked up, he saw that the second emperor's brother Zhu was already waiting outside the gate, and when he saw him coming, he took his robe and walked down the steps to the front, and shouted enthusiastically,

"Fourth brother, let me wait so hard for my brother."

"Second brother,"

While responding, Zhu Di threw the stirrup off the saddle, turned over and dismounted, and walked up quickly to greet him, giving a deep salute,

"Junior brother Zhu Di has seen the second emperor brother."

"Hurry up and excuse me,"

Zhu held him up and down, looked him up and down, and said,

"I haven't seen him for a few years, and the fourth brother has become more and more heroic."

"Second brother, don't make fun of the little brother anymore,"

Then he turned around and called Zheng Hedao,

"Sanbao, come and see His Royal Highness King Qin."

"Yes,"

Zheng He stepped forward, picked up his clothes and knelt down, and kowtowed to Zhu in a dignified manner.

"The villain Zheng He pays a visit to His Royal Highness the King of Qin."

"This is ......"

Zhu looked at the young man in front of him in some surprise.

Zhu Di knew his doubts, so he smiled,

"Oh, second brother, this is a new personal attendant I have received, named Zheng He, who often follows me."

"I see,"

Zhu nodded knowingly,

"Then let's get flat."

Do you always follow me?

Zhu still knows his fourth brother very well, and he has never done things blindly. Now that the war situation in the north is still severe, the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty often come and harass, and the military power is almost in the hands of their two brothers, it is difficult to say that there will be no unexpected things happening in this situation, that is, if there is really any accident or emergency, then the young man in front of him can be trusted, and is he the most trustworthy person? But the other party is clearly just a child, not to mention an internal servant.

Although he was a little puzzled, he also knew that Zhu Di was not a ridiculous person, if the fourth brother said so, then this young man definitely had his own advantages.

Just thinking about it, I suddenly saw Song Sheng come over and kneel on one knee and say,

"The last general will see His Royal Highness the King of Qin and ask His Highness for his guilt."

"What does this mean, and what is General Song's crime?"

Zhu was very surprised,

"Didn't the general bring King Yan back safely? Where does the word 'pleading' begin? ”

"Not really,"

Song Sheng looked ashamed and said,

"Because the last general didn't notice it, he kept staying on the official road, so that His Royal Highness King Yan didn't be able to save him in time when he encountered an assassin and was in danger, it was really the fault of the last general, I hope the two highnesses will punish him!"

"How can such a thing happen?!"

Zhu's eyes widened suddenly.

To be honest, if it is really as Song Sheng said, what happened to Zhu Di under his jurisdiction, Song Sheng is responsible and does not need to say it, and Zhu is also inevitably involved, so when he thinks of this, His Royal Highness the King of Qin's heart can't help but beat wildly.

Seeing his expression, Zhu Di knew that his second brother had always been relatively timid, and his body had always been very weak, so he was really afraid of frightening him, so he hurriedly said,

"Second brother don't have to be nervous, in fact, it's not so serious, those people are not necessarily assassins, it is very likely that a few gangsters may not be necessarily, so don't take it to heart, General Song, you don't have to care too much."

"That's right."

Zhu gently wiped the cold sweat before he said,

"Okay then, fourth brother, let's talk about it first. General Song will come along. ”

"No,"

Song Sheng shook his head,

"The last general will take these brothers back to the barracks, so he will retire first."

"That's fine."

Zhu nodded in agreement, while holding Zhu Di's hand, the two brothers entered the door of the mansion and walked straight to the living room of the inner house, Zheng He naturally followed closely behind. 2k reading web
